Should i buy it in the current state?
Hello CB Community!
Recently, my 3 year old Z10 started to not handle things very well, battery lasting for 4 hours, 4G battery drain, Spotify, Instagram and few other Android Apps just becoming slower and unresponsive.
Time to change, ok.
My first option was the BlackBerry Passport, but as today i received the Facebook update i just couldn't be more disappointed.
Basically i'm not a hardcore user, neither an enterprise user, i'm just a simple student.
I really like the Passport keyboard, honestly i just see the whole thing as the perfect phone, except by it's operating system, I've been using BB10 for like 3 years, i know it's lack of apps, i know it's unresponsiveness on Android Apps but even with that faults, i still see the Passport with kind eyes.
I mostly use my phone for Facebook, WhatsApp and few web searches.
The real question is, with the current strip of feature(Facebook hub integration), should i still buy the Passport?
If not, could you guys suggest any other phone that does have this premium feel and good design(I know, i know, the Passport is unique, but yeah...)? Please, i would like to stay away from Apple/Samsung devices.
Thanks for the help.

The Priv seems the right choice for you if you can handle the price.
Personally I bought iPhone 6s for my girlfriend and I after having some issues with my previous Passports. Man, I regret it. She is more than happy coming from an iPhone 4, but not me. Boring and not intuitive.
I still search everyday on Ebay for a Passport but I know after having an iPhone and all these apps, it will be a problem. Even if the Passport is still in my opinion the most beautiful phone on the market and it was the best experience with technology in my life, I can't recommend it to someone now due to recent news and events.
Nexus 6P and LG V10 seem to be really good phones too. Except I don't like the look of the V10. Looks cheap. I'd rather have a LG G5.
